Yeah, I had to add the '(April 9-16)' bit at the end because the title was too short. But I think 35 characters is OK.

Welcome muntdefems

Liam, something odd seems to be up with pagination. The next/previous links (which are less prominent and a much smaller click target now?) for this thread show 1/3 for page one, 2/3 for page two, and 2/3 for page three as well.

About the RSS grabber, what sites are we currently aggregating? I can see Free Gamer, Linux Game Cast, RootGamer...

I don't think we should be putting our own articles there. After all, on the main page you can choose the source between GOL and Others, so putting GOL articles there seems a bit redundant, don't you think?


PS: Great idea, by the way!

Are you sure? To me it shows 1/3 for page one as well as for page two. I think there might be some wrongly initialized index, maybe?

The pagination links look fine to me.

Page 1 will show 1/# same for page 2 (as page 2's previous is 1).

Page 2 will show 1/#, page 3 will show 2/#.

It's always the previous page.

As for this yes currently it's those and us, does everyone else think I should remove GOL's from it?

Oooh... I get it now. But then, on intermediate pages, why not to show previous/current/next?

As it is now, it looks like it's indicating page x out of y. That was my confusion anyway... :P
Liam Dawe Apr 9, 2013
Yes I see what you mean, I will probably change it to be the current page, it does make more sense.
Liam Dawe Apr 10, 2013
Based on feedback the new pagination bit is now current page/max :), i agree it was a little odd on my previous idea but hey all in the name of progress.

I will also based on feedback remove our RSS from the "Other" source - does make sense.

Question:
I'm trying to write an article but the youtube video looks too big in the preview, is there any way to make it smaller?

This is the draft:

To the question "are you planning on supporting Linux for AoW 3?" Age of Wonders developers answered:

"We currently have Mac & Windows planned, but if there is enough audience for it, we will of course also consider other platforms."

//comment: up to here in the tagline, from here on only in the full text

It's nice to see developers not only acknowledging the existence of Linux but also actually giving it a chance, a few years ago that answer would have been science fiction!

This is the facebook page:

https://www.facebook.com/AoWSeries/posts/435974766492420

And for not-facebook users there is also a topic on their forum that seems appropriate:
